In a judgment handed down on 21 October 2010, the Polish Supreme Court ruled that trademark protection cannot be used to monopolise individual colours; the spectrum is limited and it would not be in line with public interest or expectation to grant exclusivity over a particular colour.

Litigants in trademark disputes can, as in other types of claim, seek a preliminary injunction ordering another party to refrain from action (here, the activities constituting the alleged trademark infringement) until the case is decided.

Following lengthy parliamentary discussions and an increasing

Quality of Foodstuffs entered into force on 18 December 2008.
